Journey of the Sons
of God to the Promised Land
Today’s Focus:
Introduction
Scripture:
Greetings Sons of
God:
It is vital for us
as sons of God to study God’s Word so that in our search He will give us His
wisdom, knowledge and understanding into who we are, who He is and what He has
called us to do. For many of us when we
read Scriptures we for the most part really do not deal with the Old testament
because we are as some people say “A New Testament church”. Of course I do not advocate this mentality
because there is so mush wisdom, knowledge and understanding locked in the Old
Testament that for us to understand who we are, we must go back into the Old
Testament and allow the Lord to show us.
That brings me to this series.
Now we know that
physical Israel journeyed from Egypt into the Promised Land by way of the
wilderness but what we have been shown by the Lord is that, this journey was
not just for physical Israel but it is a picture for Spiritual Israel, the
House of God to understand the journey that we must take if we are to come into
our inheritance which is the Kingdom of God and rule in the earth once again in
the name of the Lord. Now one of the
important biblical principles is how God hides wisdom in names. For example:
Abraham=Father of
Many Nations
Samuel=The Lord
Hears
Jehoshaphat=The
Lord Judges
Now understanding
this when we start to examine these four major nations that come against Israel
in the wilderness in their progression to the Promised Land we must examine
what their names mean and in the revelation of their names we will then be able
to see what spirits we as the Sons of God, the House of God must overcome if we
are to come back into righteous rule in the Earth.
When you began to
understand what their names mean then when you see them in Scripture then you
will began to understand what is going on and the issues Israel is dealing with
in their advancement to the Promised Land.
The four nations we will examine in this series will be:
1.
Amalek
2.
Midian
3.
Moab
4.
Ammon
It is time for us
to study and stop regarding men by the flesh but by the spirit and when we do
that we then have a heavenly view and an accurate view and ministry then can be
true and effective.
Peace, Love and
Grace,
